PRE-TIED NECKTIE RACK It is obvious in the last few years pre-tied ties have become popular. To-day haberdashers carry an equal amount of pretied and regular ties and it is apparent the need of such a necktie rack.

SUMMARY This invention relates to a necktie rack adapted for storage pre-tied neckties. It is obvious in the last few years pre-tied neckties have become popular, and is apparent the need of such a rack.

This device made of plastic has no moveable parts comprising an elongated base having spaced parallel longitudinally rectangular sections which are provided with four substantially circular holes therethrough, each hole having a slot or narrow entrance for storage and can securely hold a multiplicity of ties in an orderly, compact and easily viewable manner, the ties being readily inserted and removed, said sections being formed of metal or plastic, said holes being opposite and having no interference with each other. The base includes apertures for the reception of fastening elements whereby the rack may be secured to a wall, door or the like.

With the above object in view this invention is to provide a necktie rack that is practical, highly efficient, neat in appearance, simplified construction, and inexpensive to manufacture.

The purpose of this invention is to provide a necktie rack that is neat in appearance, yet it is an object that is practicable and efficient and requires very little space on a door or wall. This device which has no movable parts, yet has an unbelievable outstanding feature which is capable of suspending plurality of ties and may be easily and quickly mounted never to slip off and be removed with little or no effort. This remarkable object while highy efficient and having a simplified construction is made of plastic materials and is very inexpensive to manufacture and its durability is in the service.

The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification, in which like reference characters designate like parts in all the views, and in which:

FIG. 1 is a top plan view of the base and rectangular sectional group of the tie rack broken away and in section;

FIG. 2 is a front elevational view of tie rack, shown in FIG. I;

FIG. 3 is a side elevational view of the rectangular sectional group and base showing ties being inserted, indicated by the line 3-3 in FIG. 2, looking in the direction of the arrows; and

FIG. 4 is a side elevational view of the rectangular sectional group and base showing ties being held, indicated by the line 44 in FIG. 2, looking in the direction of the arrows.

As will be readily understood from the drawings, the present rack comprises an elongated generally rectangular flat base member 10 provided with an appropriate aperture 11 for the reception of screws, nails or similar fastening elements whereby the rack may be secured to a wall, door or the like as in FIG. 2. Extending longitudinally of the base 10 and projecting forwardly from the front face thereof, is a pair of rectangular sectional group 12 that holds four ties each, substantionally circular and spaced parallel longitudinally and rigidly secured to the base by dowel pins 13. If desired however, the base and the sectional groups may be formed integrally, especially if they be made of metal or plastic materials, best shown in FIG. 1 and 2.

Each rectangular sectional group is provided with an upper vertical and lower vertical rib 14 for an additional support, as best shown in FIG. 2, the center rectangular cut 15 is not of any importance, other than cut out to save plastic material as best shown in FIG. l. The rectangular sectional groups 12 are arranged with four circular holes l6, with two narrow entrances on the inside and two on the outside 17, as best shown in FIG. 1;

The circular holes 16 with individual narrow entrances 17 are arranged not to interfere with each other, as best shown in FIG. 1 and 2, however, by inserting the ties through the narrow entrance l7, and dropping the knot 18, into the substantially circular hole 16, the upper portion of the knot being larger than the lower will enable the ties to be held and will never slip off.

What is claimed:

1. A pre-tied necktie rack comprising an elongated base having a pair of spaced parallel longitudinally rectangular sections which'are provided with an upper and lower vertical support rib and four substantially circular holes therethrough, each hole having a slot or narrow entrance through which ties may be mounted for storage and quick removal, said sections being formed integrally with said rack when made of metal or plastic, said holes being opposite to each other to prevent interference with another sectional hole and slot when inserting and removing ties through said slot entrance, said rack further including apertures for the reception of fastening elements whereby the rack may be secured to a wall or the like.
